Dear {Name of Club or Name of Club Member},

My club-- {name of your club} would like to get more fish into our BAP Program. We'd like to propose a Box Exchange with your club.

Basically, it works like this:

• We ship your club 8-10 bags of fry or juvenile fish and you do the same for us
• Each club foots the bill to ship their fish

Take a look at the Box Exchange presentation available on the Federation of American Aquarium Societies website at http://www.faas.info which has all the details for how it works.

Would you please give me a call if your club is interested?

Over the phone we can work out such details as:

• Timing
• Types of fish
• Shipping

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards,
